[echowilds]

literally just made one a while ago!!

meet kokudan:

xe were found by wardens, with xir pod washed up on a riverbank deep in echovald. the wardens took them in - recognizing xem, while alien, as part of the forest - cared for and taught him to survive. it just so happens that among those was tetra earthcall, who saw potential in him and, due to the lack of horns, the ability to pass as human with only marginal adjustments.

like the other wardens she worships the forest spirit urgoz, though to xem it's much more about the concept of decay than urgoz himself. he regularly takes off the flowers growing on their head to let them rot as an offering for the forest.

she took on the moniker kokudan to use outside of warden circles (where xe go by warden of decaying leaves), which has since become the main alias xe are known as. it's a name that induces no small amount of terror in canthan bureaucrats, with two high profile minister assassinations that could be attributed to her without doubt, amongst other crimes like sabotage, arson and domestic terrorism.

there's little official information on them, but anyone is urged to avoid interaction in any way. they've been linked tentatively to speaker activities, though MinTel believes that they operate within other criminal groups as well.

as a specter xe use shadows to travel and hide his presence until it's already too late for the target, striking swiftly and efficiently, leaving behind nothing but a few half-rotten leaves scattered almost like an afterthought. while usually under a faint mesmer illusion to blend in with the regular crowd of canthan civilization, xe have learned to use clothing and its shadows to hide xir unusual complexion.

i love sylvari that aren’t from the pale tree. i love them. if you have sylvari that come from a different tree please show them to me. i love them so much
